Zimmer Durom Cup Hip Implants

When the Zimmer Durom Cup hit the market in 2006, younger, active patients were supposed to have a medical marvel that would outlive conventional hip replacement devices. Their lifestyles were supposed to be secured. Not long after its release, problems arose with the Zimmer Durom Cup Hip replacement device. A Los Angeles surgeon warned other orthopedists about the cups’ failures. Sockets were separating from bone rather than fusing, leaving patients in severe pain and in need of corrective surgeries.

Around 5.7 percent of the 12,000 patients who received this device (between 2006 and 2008) required revision and surgery.

These failing devices are one of many metal on metal devices that have proven problematic and painful for hip replacement patients. The metal on metal hip replacement devices have been found to cause metallosis, or toxic metal poisoning, which can cause inflammation of tissue and damage to nerves and bones.

Sales of the Zimmer Durom Cup hip replacement were suspended in the United States after many doctors reported a substantially higher need for revisions and further hip surgery. You may be among the numerous patients who have complained of crippling pain experienced after implantation of this defective device.
